Renée Williams
All of MSAA's volunteers and staff express profound sadness at the sudden passing of Renée Williams, who joined our organization in 2001 as the Midwest Regional Director. Renée was a dedicated member of MSAA's family, touching many lives and reaching out to those in need.
Renée was extremely well liked and respected by her colleagues. Her infectious smile, positive attitude, and collegial manner will be greatly missed. Renée will remain in our thoughts as we continue the vital work of serving the MS community in the Midwest Region.
We extend our most sincere condolences to Renée's family. Pictured with Renée is MSAA Helpline Peer Consultant Paul Kahn.
Don Altobell
MSAA mourns the passing of longtime staff member and Board volunteer Don Altobell who recently passed away. Don regularly contributed a column in The Motivator titled, "As I See It." Don's inspirational words and positive perspective offered encouragement to readers. Don never let his MS get in the way of living every day to the fullest and he was a wonderful example of someone who persevered in spite of challenges. The staff and Board of Directors at MSAA extend their condolences to Don's family.
